Anau
★★★★★
(1,076)
The dive site Anau offers easy and protected diving in the lagoon. It is possible to see manta rays all year because it is a cleaning station. Turtles are also sometimes observed.
To see the mantas, three instructions must be followed: do not touch them, let the mantas come towards the diver, and try to avoid exhaling as they pass. They don’t like our bubbles.
